What does code C006B mean?

Q: What does code C006B mean?

Stability System Active Too Long. C006B indicates that the electronic stability control (ESC) system has been actively intervening for longer than the module considers normal, typically because a wheel speed sensor or steering angle sensor is reporting implausible data. The computer detects this when the stability control activation timer exceeds a calibrated threshold, often set between five and ten seconds of continuous or near-continuous intervention.
